Who DOES have their birthday in April Fool's Day is Tammi the monkey(she is creepy), but in New Leaf she had her birthday on April 2nd because of Blanca
I’ll have to dig up my old guide, but I could’ve sworn it did say that Jack was a Black Cat under his pumpkin mask. What adds to it is the superstition surrounding black cats and the belief in many cultures that they were tied to witches and magic.
Really? First time I heard of that. I quickly look it up, but there's nothing in the official wiki page about that. I mean...I only did like 5 minutes of research, lol. But yeah, I didn't find anything. It could be a mistake, or maybe it was like a guess or something. Idk.
I'm surprised you didn't mention Hans when you had that fact about mythological creatures, since he's most likely the Yeti. I mean, he's a blue ape with white fur...
@@eroslovescoffee ...folklore and mythology are basically the same thing. Mythology is literally a part of folklore. So yes...the Yeti, by definition, is a Mythological creature.
The difference is folklore is supposedly based on true life accounts. Like Bigfoot. Mythology is based on hundreds of years of passed down legends. Therefore, they are somewhat similar but definitely not the same or even virtually the same.
2:00 In Spanish too, they made a similar thing with Luna, the owner of the Dream Suit in NL or the dreaming service in NH. She's called "Alakama", if you separate the word and write it correctly you get "A la cama", which means "Go to bed" in english. I think that's really cool!
Something interesting i also noticed about some characters is their relation to roman gods. Apollo roman/greeck god who is associated with music and birds. Diana is a roman goddess of the hunt with a deer as sacred animal. Apollo and Diana are also siblings.
Well...Diana pretty popular name, lol. And Apollo (the God), doesn't really have a association with birds. Not really the thing he's know for. There's just countless things relating Apollo (the character), to America, and American things, that I highly, highly doubt his name is reference to the Greek God. But we do need a villager that is a direct reference to like, Zeus, or something. Imagine a dog villager with a "storm" themed house or something. Or has those Greek looking posts in his house. Idk.
@@LuckyOwI777 Apollo can literally fly and that's why most people know him for its not that hard to know that if you've ever been to 6th grade. No one knows if she's right but what ik is your wrong you obviously haven't studied Greek mythology enough to try debunk that theory Wait nvm I'm stupid I'm thinking of Hermes
@@user-nw6di1fn2d Oh...that would just be impossible, lol. Also (this isn't confirmed), but I believe that there is only one Sprocket and one Ribot, and the numbers are just in order of when they created. So the other missing numbers, are different robot animals. That's how I always thought of it.
One of my goals at the moment is to have my village be a monster mash, filled with the weirdest villagers possible. I've already got Lucky the mummy, Hopkins the inflatable bunny, Zucker the takoyaki, as well as Coco and Drago. I've also got Ankha, but while she is my favorite villager I haven't quite decided if she is weird enough yet.
Ankha could be a reference to King Tut and a lot of the people who opened his tomb got cursed so maybe that could be a justification for having her. I recommend Del because he’s a boat.
Listen, you can't understimate the amount of puns found in the Spanish translation for the game. Like, the translators REALLY went all out, they had the time of their lives. -Both Isabelle and her brother Digby have names that reference the fact they are dogs: Canela (meaning cinnamon) and Candrés (from the given name Andrés) are puns on "can", a word that means dog. -Mabel and Sable were named Pili and Mili after two famous actresses that happened to be twins. -Sahara's name is an actual word (albeit a very infrequent one): Alcatifa (which is a Spanish word of Arabic origin meaning a very fine rug) -Flick's name is Kamilo, which is a given name (Camilo) similar to the word camaleón (chameleon in Spanish) but with a K so it sounds more punk and alternative. -Jingle is called Renato, a given name that acts as a pun on his species (reno in Spanish) -Timmy and Tommy are Tendo and Nendo, which are references to...you guessed it, Nintendo. -Blanca (same name in other european languages) is a girl's name that means white. As in...the colour white and the fact she is "en blanco", meaning, blank. -Lottie's name has the same pun in Spanish: the name Nuria becomes Nutria( otter) adding a t. -Wendell is called Da Morsi, a pun on morsa (walrus) and Da Vinci (being an artist and all that...) -My favorite one is Paquito, a duck. In Spanish, little duck/duckling is "patito" and Paquito is a varian of the name Paco, so it ends up being "Paquito the patito" and that is super cute. But there's many, many more!
@@psychitsbee3324 I was in crossing channels live stream and I asked him if he was mayor Mori's twin and he said yes. Idk if he was joking but I wouldn't be surprised if they were
Thanks for these! The facts are so interesting. As a bonus, Gladys is a reference to a Japanese story about how a young man saved a crane which ended up turning into a human lady. To repay his kindness, she made cloth for him from her own feathers to sell to the emperor (the man was very poor). That’s why Gladys has the kimono and loom in her house. :)
He's also my favorite villiare. I first had him in new leaf and fell in love with him. So when he was my first campsite villager and i tell you i screamed out of happiness lol
@@Kyu_uwu he was a cranky and the games before new leaf added the 2 other personillyis. I think O'Hare and a couple others moved to different personalities.
When you're on Harv's island and you pick up Sprocket there is a weird noise that sounds like metal moving, and I couldn't hear it when I picked up my other villagers.... Not sure if I imagined it
I believe all 3 of the robot villigars make metal sound. I have Del and when he walks around i can hear it. So you weren't imaging it. Hope this helped
Yes indeed. I like Julian a lot, but Phoebe is so so so underrated! I was always bound to like her as I love phoenixes. Hans is pretty cool, I wouldn’t hunt for him but if he moved in I would like him
Vesta is one of my favorites, I have her in pocket camp and I recently hunted her down for my island in New Horizons! (Ik nobody asked but Vesta is not that popular and I’m glad a big RUclipsr is talking about Vesta)
Another fact: if you scan a QR code of a horned hat or non horned hat you’ll be able to wear them in new horizons. You’ll need new leaf if you want to make your own but I found other ways.
Neat tidbit about the three robot villagers: they have a unique, metallic walking sound. It can be tough to hear with all the ambient noise, but it's a nice touch to add some depth to our villager friends who are a little different.
Patty the cow is also supposed to be a reference to a "cow patty", meaning cow poop lmao. Poor Patty. I've also always thought that in addition to Drago being a dragon, his name might be a reference to dressing in drag, since it looks like he's wearing lipstick.
You should try new leaf, to get to know some characters more, like the cut character Brewster 😊 I say new leaf because It’s the one just before horizon
I was amazed to hear that the German version of the game also has a cool name with Dolly, the sheep. 👍 Honestly, in my opinion most of the German names in game are so unrelatable. It's like the translator simply picked old fashioned, boring names totally at random 😣😠
The only German name I wish the US kept was was Morpheus instead of Sherb. Morpheus is a much cooler name and it’s not as if we don’t know how to say it!
The bowlingual was sold in the US, and even was mentioned in Time Magazine for being an amazing invention is 2002. (I think it was 2002, but could be wrong)
I've always seen Saharah and Gracie as males ever since I played WW... Dunno why that's so taboo to Eng version...? I'm looking forward to them adding old and new villagers 😮✨
My personal favorite villager fact is Kiki being based on Gigi from Kiki’s Delivery Service in the English translation, something that I thought was super clever.
Prior to watching all I knew was -Nan and Chevre have a picture of each other in their houses in reference to a Japanese nursery rhyme -Apollo and Whitney may have dated -Graham has a pic of Francine and Chrissy in his house cause he's a fan of bubblegum K.K. edit: I have Chevre, Apollo, Whitney and Coco. Used to have Graham but I didn't like him and one day I looked in his house, saw the pictures really high up on the wall and got a little creeped out
Just like patty references a burger patty. And tipper references cow tipping! Lol I love putting the names together with the character species it’s fun. Nibbles the squirrel has scary teeth that could nibble on you 🤪
Nana the monkey's name is based off the Ice climber Nana from the Nintendo game Ice Climber. It also explains why her catchphrase is Popo (Nanas Climbing partner). It's also a reference to Ba"Nana".
another fact/easter egg that not many people know about is about the villagers Chevre and Nan. there house are exact mirror opposites of each other in black and white. i think it may be based off a japanese nursery rhyme about a white goat and a white goats letters, it goes like this: A letter arrived from a white goat. A black goat ate it up before reading. Lacking any other choice, the black goat sent a letter: What did you write in your letter? The letter arrived from the black goat. The white goat ate it up before reading. Lacking any other choice, the white goat sent a letter: What did you write in your letter?
Oh my gosh! I've had all three of the Mythical Villagers in my town in New Leaf! My mind was just blown when I saw all three of them together on the screen. Lol.
I'm shocked you did not mention the relation of Ike the bear and Poko the cub. Ike is the father of jock villager Poko, who never made it past the first game.
Idk how many people know this BUT I just found out a few days ago that Kidd Kat, Rocket, Big Top, & Agent S all wear matching superhero outfits & they are each numbered 1-4!
@@ametsunami4070 his Japanese name is Jack & it had to be changed to Raymond, due to the Halloween NPC already being called Jack. Kinda sad as he's my second favourite villager, behind Zucker/Takoyi
@@LeoDBW yeah, but no other characters have a surname to distinguish the two. If Tom Nook didn't have a last name, I can imagine Tom's name would have to have been changed too.
Fun Fact: Weber the lazy duck villager is named after the webbing of duck feet and is possibly named after Carl Maria von Weber, a German composer from the 1700s. Further backed by the instruments in his house.
You missed a fact about Punchy the cat - his Japanese name: ビンタ (“Binta”) translates to “hitting” or “slapping” something. I feel bad for him now since he’s my favourite villager :((((
Did you know: A goat called pashmina, in New horizons has a rainbow patterned sweater. now it gives me the feeling of her being of LGBTQ. she is sisterly. She is p e r f e c t.
Here is an interesting fact (well sort of speculation since I don’t know if this is confirmed so please don’t take my words fact): The monkey villager named Nana is probably named after another Nintendo character! To the people who don’t know, if you played smash bros (regardless if it’s Smash Bros Ultimate or older games) the ice climbers but in particular the pink ice climber’s name is Nana (well that is her cannon name) and Nana’s catchphrase in animal crossing (being Po Po ) is a reference to the blue ice climber since his name is Popo! :)

I still believe Bob's birthday should have been April Fool's Day, April 1st. That date just fits him
I'm born on April 1st
That’s my sister’s bday
Isn't there another villager with that birthday? Or am I just assuming based on nothing?
Who DOES have their birthday in April Fool's Day is Tammi the monkey(she is creepy), but in New Leaf she had her birthday on April 2nd because of Blanca

I'm surprised you didn't mention Hans when you had that fact about mythological creatures, since he's most likely the Yeti. I mean, he's a blue ape with white fur...
Aren't yetis technically cryptids?
@@cosmicdunsparce I mean...I think so. What does that have to do with anything? They are still mythological creatures.

I saw a headcannon theory on Reddit theorizing that the robot villagers were created by Cobb, the mad scientist!
And Cobb was trained by Dr. Shrunk!
Well no, because Cobb is (based on this headcanon) a roboticist and dr. Shrunk is a psychologist so how would he have mentored Cobb?
@@octobot5216 everyone needs a hobby
Cobb’s goal is to be a teacher, so this doesn’t make any sense in hindsight. Yo add to this, his skill is debating.

There's a cow named "Angus" who wears a flame shirt. He's literally asking to be eaten.

Fun fact: the original sheep was actually named Dolly after Dolly Parton since she was clone from breast tissue cells lol
I was going to comment this!
Pashmina also has a dark backstory to her name- a pashmina is a type of scarf that is made from goat fur, and pashmina is a goat villager

@@wyldegi Exactly, lol
Ummm same! I have her she chills me out!
I literally had bob but I made the mistake of letting him leave
I didn’t want him to feel like he was forced to live there
I’d love to see a video on the characters that have been removed from the game :))
Oh my gosh! I've had all three of the Mythical Villagers in my town in New Leaf! My mind was just blown when I saw all three of them together on the screen. Lol.
I thought Jack was a nod to Nightmare Before Christmas which would of been so cool~
These are really interesting facts, thank you for posting!
I'm shocked you did not mention the relation of Ike the bear and Poko the cub. Ike is the father of jock villager Poko, who never made it past the first game.
Idk how many people know this BUT I just found out a few days ago that Kidd Kat, Rocket, Big Top, & Agent S all wear matching superhero outfits & they are each numbered 1-4!
vesta, patty, sprocket, and drago have been with me since the beginning of new horizons. i love them and i don't intend on ever letting any of them go
Pumpking being called Jack in English is the reason Raymond had his name swapped too. Can't have 2 Jacks.
wut about Raymond?
@@ametsunami4070 his Japanese name is Jack & it had to be changed to Raymond, due to the Halloween NPC already being called Jack. Kinda sad as he's my second favourite villager, behind Zucker/Takoyi
That's weird because in the English version, there's a cat villager named Tom... like Tom Nook :/
@@LeoDBW yeah, but no other characters have a surname to distinguish the two. If Tom Nook didn't have a last name, I can imagine Tom's name would have to have been changed too.
I'm surprised you didn't mention Pietro (the colourful sheep). He was named after a clown that laughed himself to death
Fun Fact: Weber the lazy duck villager is named after the webbing of duck feet and is possibly named after Carl Maria von Weber, a German composer from the 1700s. Further backed by the instruments in his house.
6:40 BUT RIBBOT NEEDS MORE LOVE 😩 HES MY FAVORITE ACNH CHARACTER AAAAAHDJSJSCHHS
My favorite villager name is Tipper, who is a cow... Class traitor...
You’re the best channel ever I watch all your videos
Perhaps Sprocket's number could be a reference to Ostrich, or O[Zero]-Shi[4]?
Patty was born on my birthday
Just thought I would share😊
This is one of the only animal crossing videos I didnt know a single fact of! Well done.
I have had phoebe since day one, I love her, she is so nice
One of my favourite smugs, with the darkest name yet.
Poor Elmer.
Elmer is a lazy villager, and I think the more likely reference is to Elmer Horse Collection, a horse figurine company.
You missed a fact about Punchy the cat - his Japanese name: ビンタ (“Binta”) translates to “hitting” or “slapping” something. I feel bad for him now since he’s my favourite villager :((((
Okay, so i have/had some of these villagers and now i cherish vesta and bob more than ever-
SCREW POPULARITY I NEED REFERENCES
Did you know: A goat called pashmina, in New horizons has a rainbow patterned sweater. now it gives me the feeling of her being of LGBTQ. she is sisterly. She is p e r f e c t.
Well liking rainbows doesn't make classify as LGBTQ
Everyone connects rainbows with LGBTQ nowadays. I like rainbows and I’m not part of the LGTBQ community, and so shouldn’t she.
I started with Phoebe. She was the first villager that moved from my island in New horizons. I miss her.
Here is an interesting fact (well sort of speculation since I don’t know if this is confirmed so please don’t take my words fact):
The monkey villager named Nana is probably named after another Nintendo character! To the people who don’t know, if you played smash bros (regardless if it’s Smash Bros Ultimate or older games) the ice climbers but in particular the pink ice climber’s name is Nana (well that is her cannon name) and Nana’s catchphrase in animal crossing (being Po Po ) is a reference to the blue ice climber since his name is Popo! :)
Did not know about Vista, that's cool to know (she's my favorite villager : D
Pancetti is named after pancetta which is a type of ham/bacon. Pancetti is a pig. This is very similar to Pate.
At this point I usually get very bored with AC fact videos across youtube, but a lot of this I didn’t know!! ☺️
Awe guys the first anniversary cake I got today it’s so cute!
